I am sure even at this early stage everything looks so bright .GM jersey cream in Kudu kop mug is inside the chalet ( don't trust those monkeys )Went to the Vet this morning and injections done and dusted ,, and chips checked and Surprisingly Paddy did not want to bite the Vet and didn't kill or even growl at the other dogs in the waiting room . Oor wullie I am sure sang the whole of the Messiah by Handel while waiting for the vet and concluded with the Halleluia chorus on the way back . Now they are all worm free and flea free apart from Doughall who has an allergy to fleas and needs to have a special rather expensive collar which has been ordered for him .. but it lasts 8 months and that should tide us over the flea season..Now my CC is in CCICU ,,, gosh pets can be expensive .Still waiting for the man to come quote for the tree.... I phoned him and the first words he said were "Isn't the rain super" !! Its been drizzling on and off all morning and the garden likes it. He said he would come tomorrow hopefully but would ring before he came .. there is no real rush .Well Val enjoy Amelia and Della I am sure you can manage the teas for the ladies in the shop. what is the theme at the moment ???? Mischief x2 Keep cool Oor wullie says the furry mischief can come visit and they can snooze on the bed Havie is also welcome.

Now I am going to bake a chocolate cake and join GM and whatever he is making and have tea at 3pm Please all come . I think bring your own mug and plate . Limited supply in KNP in the chalets

The rain last night flattened and watered the last lot in nicely!Amazingly the shops are not too hectic yet but sure that won't last!

Hope the shoulder is feeling lots better Della and that Carol is also recovering and not back in hospital!

Hope the eye surgery went well Philip, but keep that eye patch on and rest up.

Know the feeling when you get those ellie road blocks GM but that's what its all about!

Enjoy the baby sitting Val! sure she keeps you on your toes but very entertained!

Have our end of year social Christmas function tonight, we all take a small plate of eats and share. usually there is so much food its impossible to finish it all.

It has been blistering hot here most of the morning until 20 minutes ago...now we have very ominous sounds of thunder and dark black clouds.Just hope that some rain falls as well and it is not sound effects only

Or maybe Philip will not agree now he can see all clear Billy & PS you will have to enlighten me .. What is losloper ... Stampie I hope you enjoy your turn of running after the dude how's the wedding outfit looking? Cannot believe how quick it has come around ... Not surprised that Sparrow has made his 2000 forum post .. I had the pleasure of meeting him and he like the rest of us likes a gossip Looks like you all getting ready for the festivities our kids don't break up from school till Xmas week, but then this is not their annual holidays ... Have a great Friday all
